Two weeks after losing the Ashes, Australia beat England by four runs in the first of their seven one-day internationals. The match showcased the talents of Yorkshireman Adil Rashid, who with his leg-spin first helped England limit Australia to 260 for five, and then launched a late onslaught with the bat, scoring an unbeaten 31 from 23 balls, to revive England's hopes of victory after a middle order collapse. Callum Ferguson won the man-of-the-match award for an unbeaten 71 while Cameron White weighed in with 53 for Australia.
